Seen in a garden, Vienna, Austria, August 2008
Taken hand held in the wild on a windy day day.
Two images stacked using Zerene. I have no idea what this insect is, but it was very patient with me.
Wish i had a macro lens.. this is heavily cropped & sometimes a macro lens would come in very handy indeed.
Love the way the dragonfly seems to be actually smiling at his lunchtime menu.
September 2013 - the last of a series of a female ruby-throated hummingbird checking out a monarch butterfly.
I was looking for butterflies in a scrubby limestone area near Riberac in France and noticed these incredible insects with shimmering yellow wings whizzing about. Close-up they are just amazing, and surprising from all angles.
This Four-spotted Skimmer is feeding on another insect, which is the whitish-looking bit in its mandibles. I watched the meal disappear!
I'm not 100% sure of my I.D., so any correction would be appreciated
This little one showed up when taking pics of the mini rose with the magnifying lens. He wasn't very big but the lens filter enlarged it quite a bit.
Have spotted these very tiny springtails again this year. They are very small and active, tricky to get a good shot!
